probably the most amazing use of 64kb ever


Recommended Posts

the tool they made packs the 1.9 gigs to 64kb a 30.000 to 1 ratio...

From what I understand, thats file isn't really compressed, it's just 'not uncompressed' (double negative).

I don't think you could really apply that to an ISO file ;).

It's pretty old. There used to be a webpage dedicated to this sort of stuff by several groups that used to do such content. Eventhough it's aged, it's always amazing to watch. Like most people say it, they're using equations and telling the computer to generate the graphics you see on screen.

sweet program :yes: :woot:

If you read the credits at the end they say that all the stuff like the textures, text, mp3s, etc UNcompressed are about 1.9 gigs and the tool they made packs the 1.9 gigs to 64kb a 30.000 to 1 ratio...

The packer is a UPX modification made by their team... think about it, if they release the code the cellular and mobile companies would freak I mean imagin to transfer an iso, like 650 mb in a couple of seconds with a dial up!!

Maybe I got the concept wrong, if i did please tell me i don't wanna look like a fool :/

Laters :D

got the wrong end of the stick there

the program is made using code to recreate the stuff

...and the page of the people who made it: http://www.farb-rausch.de

also check out http://www.pouet.net and http://www.scene.org

its the demoscene, ladies and gents, and for the life of me i can't understand why its not popular and/or well known, that particular piece of code is just one of the vast numbers of demos like that... some of them are absolutely amazing.

some good ones to search for on pouet & scene.org:

odd world domination

gerbera

VIP2

the non-stop ibiza experience

and poemtoahorse (by the same group who did the product)

by the way, the one featured on albinoblacksheep is about 4/5 years old by now... there are some which look loads better than that now :)

NEWSFLASH, its a midi and textures, NOT VIDEO

NEWSFLASH, there is not a single bit of midi and textures in it. It's all DirectX code, just efficient mathematical algorithms, that's all. By the way, you guys should look for a piece called 'acid and ice', amazingly only 4k. ;)

No, some other people need to ****ing learn how to read. It has been mentioned a few times on different places in the thread, yet people are still like "OMG WHAT A GREAT COMPRESSION!!!".

well, despite the fact that he's SCREAMING MAD AT EVERYBODY AND EVERYTHING ALL THE DAMN TIME, Tom Servo is right... its all generated on-the-fly by your comp, using cunning algorithms. no compression is used at all, apart from the exe compression to get the code to fit. no textures etc were used at all.

AAAAARGH GOT THAT?!?!?!?!

It looked a bit dodgy 2 me, telling u to close off mIRC and dont press any keys etc. So i never viewed it. Edited by me because someone didnt like it. :unsure:

Look at this! A ****ing page 4 comment. And you people wonder why I get ****ed within 0.14secs? Stupidity like this is happening all over the place here.
